Oh boy, you do need to read my friend. ;)

In recovery (twerp, twink, Clockwork, whatever) back up your current set up. Then... I suggest you wipe data/factory reset, then wipe dalvik and cache yes. I do it 3 times on Clockwork just to be sure. The cleaner you get it the less problems you will incur. I always wipe fresh unless instructed specifically to do otherwise.

Flash your Rom, gapps, kernel and enjoy.

Hello,

I recently bought used in mint HTC Desire. It had already S-OFF'ed, Rooted, Recovery Installed (CWM) and Custom ROM flashed (MIUI).

After few days, I noticed the issue of screen backlight is flickering when I set manual brightness setting to low or dim. Mostly at night times. Though could be ROM issue but when I flashed different ROM, there issue persists. :(

Later of researching, found that this is known issue in mostly Desire Z. When I set above 31%, backlight won't flicker so it means the LCD tolerance of low voltage is not good.

Now I cannot send it back for warranty as its 2nd hand and I don't have bill. Of course, international purchase.

I use 3rd party app to set 31% whereas default low setting is 20%. I would like to modify the default low brightness setting to 31% so that I can use default brightness manual slider and won't be needing of 3rd party apps.

Can anybody please help me where I can find the setting file? Or atleast a app to modify it.

Thanks...

Best Regards

Sebastian today uploaded new mod for auto-brightness settings...haven't tested it very well yet, but give it a try. It's downloadable from addons (names include "autobrightness", don't forget to chose correct HBOOT).
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CRACING:
Yeah noticed. I just downloaded and flashed v5.0.2 few hours before he released v5.0.3. :o

However, I don't think that will solve my LCD flickering issue because my LCD is faulty or doesn't work with low back light (tolerance), otherwise. :(

Backlight percent shouldn't go below 31% otherwise, my lcd starts to flicker. Default low setting is 20 I guess.

Thanks...

I think you are looking for this one...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CRACING:
Thanks. I was doing that itself while you posted!

First time I used APKMultiTool to modify framework-res.apk and when I pushed to phone and reboot, it sucked at animation loop. :o

Had to reflash to get back to working device. Then I tried Apk Manager 4.9. Pushed the file and after reboot device is working fine.

But still same issue. :(

Things I have modified:

config_lowest_autoBrightnessLcdBacklightValuesDown

config_lowest_autoBrightnessLcdBacklightValuesUp

config_lowest_autoBrightnessLcdBacklightValues

Edited to 31 lowest in place of 30.

Edit: looks like thats different or otherwise related to auto brightness setting. Mine is with manual brightness setting. Anybody know where that will be?

Thanks...

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kotag82:
did you wipe dalvik? I could be related to rc tweaks too as they have commands how to control those numbers... I don't that knowledge just learning that...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CRACING:
No, thats different. Its auto brightness settings. Do you see or used Default, Lower and Lowest option in rc tweaks? Yes those settings are found in framework-res.apk. Thats what I have edited but it will not change manual brightness setting bar (in quick settings).

I guess manual brightness setting should be in kernel.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kotag82:
Im using Lower option and Im happy with it... Lowest is too low for me... try pm Droidzone he made kernel for seb15...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CRACING:
Wish my device was also same but its LCD has low backlight tolerance issue. And the device is 2nd hand nor I have money to buy new lcd. Thats why I'm struggling to fix it myself.

Tried some 3rd party apps. Worked fine but they didn't suited well for daily usage. :(

Droidzone has disabled PM and seb15 has denied asking questions via PM. I tried to post the issue in his thread but no body responded. :(

Thanks...

Guys I need some help from u. On market I saw one app 'Bluekeyboard JP' app where we can connect bluetooth keybord. I saw one vdo also on youtube. It shows that it really work flawlessly. I wanted to try it because I type daily lots of msgs to my gf. But its really annoying to use touchscreen ketbord. If a bluetooth keyboard works for me then really I will be very happy. But problem is that I don't have bluetooth keyboard to test it. I couldn't test it. So if anybody has blutooth keybord or mouse then please test it with mentioned app and report here.

Also I am frustrated with multitasking of our phone. I want to browse two heavy browsers opera & mozilla simultaneously but after sometime of the browser definitely get closed without my permision. I want that any app must be closed only if I permist to get close. I found one strange thing that nimbuzz messanger never get close. It gets closed when only we want to close it manually (i tested it). Can we have same thing in other apps also...?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
Is there anybody who can help me...?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cix18:

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
thank god...at least someone replied here. I mean to say that we can (not sure) bluetooth keyboard using blueinput app. But i dont have bluetooth keyboard so asking u guys to test it & report here.

If we want to use keyboard with usb port then we should have usb otg enabled in our phone which we currently dont have :(
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bangalorerohan:
No dude!

The app Does not work!

I had been to a store!

That fellow also had a Logitech.

I tested it there.

It does not recognize the keyboard.

Rather buy one in the "Local Bazaar"....Liek teh China Market type bazaar!

Those work I guess!

The Dealer himself said me to try those!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
oh...ok I will try tomorrow. Thanx buddy.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bangalorerohan:
DONT BUY IT!

Just ask him for a trial.

If it works then only buy :D
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
ya obviously buddy. I want one more help. Do u know any app or mod by which there should be automatic enable or disable data connection?? I mean to say in nokia phones its really easy to connect net just by launching opera & insert a site link. But in our android phone we have to first enable it before launching opera. Also when we have to close opera then even after that data connection stays connected. But in nokia when we close opera then automatically data connection also get disconnected. That is much reliable.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bangalorerohan:
Umm...I will see!

Dont know much of Apps!

More into Android Core Development :D
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ggclanlord:
I made a couple of searches and found that its known as Connection on Demand.

Though nothing found for our beloved Android OS.

I guess the best alternative for you would be to use some app to disconnect data connection when.screen is off and reconnect when you turn on screen.

As for Connection On Demand, didn't hit anything yet.

About BT Mouse and Keyboard, i dont have any, so.cant help you wth it.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cix18:

Tasker works flawlessly, you set a rule that "if" app Opera opened then start data connection (you need another app APNdroid for toggle) then add exit task so when you close opera thedata will be off. It can also start data based on gps location or switch wifi based on ssid or location.........it has endless possibility.

Now coming to your sms typing problem, your GF will be happy to listen your voice so use inbuilt voice recorder in .amr attach the file via sms or email her............she would love it. (hope she has compatible phone else use .mp3)

If you still want text then use & practice sound typing, the inbuilt mike on keyboard does a good job after some practice. There is another app vlingo its very good for voice commands.

Typing is old method, be smart with your smartphone.......lol
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bangalorerohan:
YEah!

Voice To TExt Rock!

Use that itself!

Texting is soo 3-years-back!

And, The .amr needs the MMS thingy and both should have a data pack active!

If you change the Voice Detection settings, Then Vocie to text is AMAZING!

Just go to settings->Voice Input and OutPut-> Voice recognition settings-> English (India)

THen, It is amazing!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:

hmm.n.n........Serious problems, but your mom may be proud of you that you love her so much that you have started sending voice messages :D:D lol.

Anyway tasker with the correct profile will do all your jobs, it can even call the "personal contact" at a specified time all you need is a profile setting.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
its really working flawlessly. It has taken my 2 hours to actually understand whole app. But still unable to set only one thing. Now i have set profile in such way that when i open market then data connection will start automatically & when i close market then data connection will stop automatically. But here problem is if i want open another app by keeping on market then as soon i press home key to come to home screen then data connection gets off.

Means when market is actualy open on my screen only then data connection remain on otherwise it will go off. I want that even if i do multi tasking then data connection remain on. What setting should I do?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sgsI9003:
2hrs is nothing it took me almost 2 weeks to make my own working profile, tasker is quite a powerful app which can do a lot, its real potential is in scripting.

1 way to do it but I am not sure so best is to try it else ask this in tasker thread, there are already many built user profiles on tasker site they can be used or modified.

http://tasker.wikidot.com/profile-index

Multiselect all apps which you need data enabled, so as any one or more apps is opened data is enabled now don't have a usual exit task, instead make another task where "if" data mode not used for "set" time then "toggle" data. So lets say you set 5 min idle then it will switch off data after 5 min of non usage.

Just wondering why do you want to switch on & off data so frequently? Is your 3g sucking power or giving you huge bill?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
my simple funda behind doing all these things is that i want internet functionality like nokia symbian phones where we dond have to turn on or off data again & again before or after doing our net relate work. It should completely automatically handle by phone.

I use docomo 4gb/month data plan for 94 rs. I download movies, vdos most of the time through ucbrowser. To download a movies it normally takes nearly 2 hours. So thats why i keep it running in background & do all other stuff like gaming, msg etc.

I set tasker profile in such a way that when I enter any net related app say ucweb then it will enable net. And when I exit (means completely closing of that app) then it will disable net.

But here funny problem is tasker consider 'exit' meaning as only going that app in background. So as per set profile it un-necessary disable net when i let ucweb run in backgroun.

I also tried as per ur suggestion. I set a timer say 15 min. But again same problem happens. Lets say my ucweb need approximately 2 hours to complete download a movie in background. Then obviously when i will let ucweb to run in background then as per timer tasker will wait for 15 min & after that it will turn off net without caring that ucweb still need net connection to download movie.

I want simple profile which will do only this

1. When i open net related app then 2g connection should on.

2. This 2g connection must run even that net related app go in background.

3. This 2g connection must turn off only when i exit from net related app (means complete closing of that app).

My requirement is very simple. Still i will try myself. U also help me :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sgsI9003:
If the auto sync is off then the data will only be used ONLY when you open any app for internet access & any background downloading goes as usual, I do it all the time, so I am still not able to understand what unique feature are looking to achieve & why do you need the data to be off, I only switch off data to airplane mode in the night.

I said in earlier post not to add exit task instead make another task which detects data connection unused for 5min hence it will shut off, if the background data is downloading then it wont apply the rule so you get the functionality what you want.

I repeat tasker can do a lot almost anything you can think of but you need syntax based logical rules to be made which takes a while to understand & then implement.

1. When i open net related app then 2g connection should on.

make new rule add all teh apps which you want data on (don't make exit task)

2. This 2g connection must run even that net related app go in background.

dont use back button, instead use long press home button or task manager to toggle to other apps, since there will be no exit task it wont shut off data.

3. This 2g connection must turn off only when i exit from net related app (means complete closing of that app).

Make a new task which is time based event,

so 5min is time &

event is no data exchange

rule is switch off the data.

that will do the job but I again say why do you switch data off when its not being used as no apps is using it (auto sync off)?

Does that make things clear?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
The main reason is that when u left data connection on (even though its not used) then definitely battery will get drained huge on 2g. I have tested 100 times.

But if u turn off data connection (2g) then lot of battery gets saved. I asked my querry in tasker thread that u had provided. I got interesting answer from OP

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sgsI9003:
Interesting answer so tasker cannot monitor background apps & will treat it as exit task automatically but as he said I also remember some user seeking to do the same & posted some solution but you need to read all pages

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sgsI9003:
I also think so moreover battery drain is more on 3g networks when on idle but on 2g idle I have never faced this problem,

I get 24hrs with less usage mostly phone calls & sms with 2-3 times email checking

16+ hrs with moderate usage

12 hrs with heavy usage

4+ hrs only with actual multi tasking & using the phone non stop.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
ya 2g takes less battery but actually by using some (illegal) trick i use 3g docomo net (dont ask me trick) but by paying for only 2g net ;)

So obviously my 3g data gets on automatically whenever i want to use net. Anyway i decided to just go by normal way i.e. turning on or off data connection whenevery its necessary.

Really android is so much customizable. But its really annoying that for small-small things we have to customize alot to get that little thing work.

i tested logitech keyboard today in market. Its wireless keyboard (not bluetooth keyboard). Means it connect with given given dongle with RF (radio frequency). So its useless. I searched alot for real bluetooth keyboard but I couldn't found any keyboard in my market. Can anybody have a bluetooth keyboard for testing...?

Also I am frustrated with multitasking of our phone. I want to browse two heavy browsers opera & mozilla simultaneously but after sometime of the browser definitely get closed without my permision. I want that any app must be closed only if I permist to get close. I found one strange thing that nimbuzz messanger never get close. It gets closed when only we want to close it manually (i tested it). Can we have same thing in other apps also...?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sgsI9003:
Remember this is a mobile phone not a laptop. Not even the latest greatest phone can do multi tasking because as soon as new phone comes the devs of apps put more use of gpu/cpu in their apps so all power is consumed.

The fact remains mobile cant have laptop power, laptop cant have desktop power, desktop cant have server power.....each is meant for specific usages.

Why would you do this when you can open multiple tabs in any of the browser. Use Dolphin HD you can easily surf with 10 tabs open.

This is more of android issue & if the devs have coded the apps to run in the background or not.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
ya I know that. But its really annoying when u have such powerful device but still u can't multitask properly. I also use nokia 5320 symbian handset which has always 100 mb free ram for usage. Trust me I am using that mobile from 3 years & never faced any multitasking issue. When multitasking goes beyond its limit it straight forward tell us by displaying a msg as 'memory insufficient. Close some apps'. I mean to say that u have complete power of multitasking. In laptop also if we open 5-6 windows then it never happens that any window get closed because u are not using it. What a stupid android system which auto closes app after sometime because it think that we are not using it...wow...!!! Means u can't control closing of apps.

Question is not about 2 browser. Question is that why it does not keep open app until I want???
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sgsI9003:
I am failing to understand as to why are you facing so much problem since I do multi tasking all the time.

Car multitasking

Gps navigation on with voice guide

music streaming in the background via car bluetooth

I have car dock app running 6 apps which I toggle as & when required.

if call comes I take the call & as soon I finish music resumes & last app screen resume automatically.

If a sms is received its read to me via car speakers & all this while if I am standing on a crossing then I check emails & web surfing (browser tabs are always on in background)

all this gives me 100mb ram free, I use android assistant since day one when I bought the phone in Feb 2011 & it also have option to clean memory every (user set) hours.

Home multitasking

Phone connect via wifi with "myphoneexplorer" on my desktop this allows me to take calls via computer speaker or phone, I prefer phone only. This keeps all my data in sync automatically or manually I use manual sync only.

sms can be typed via computer itself while the phone may be kept anywhere in the house.

if I receive sms then I get notification on computer screen & I can read/reply via computer itself. You can use this method till you find your bluetooth keyboard.

if I am sitting in another room then I am browsing web (multiple tabs) taking call, using wifi file browser accessing my files from phone/ watching youtube or live tv news etc. All this while gmail notifies me if I receive email.

playing games or kids using some app all this again keeps 100mb ram free may be due to android assistant which I have always had on my phone.

All this multitasking no app is closed unless I close it or android assistant cleans up it from the memory if it does it notifies me.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
You are not getting my point. All the apps which u have mentioned are no use for me. I mean to say I dont use wifi, sync of mails, android assistance etc.

I will tell u briefly. Me & my friend have tested, observed these things with help of comparing my symbian nokia phone, my frnd's iphone & my galaxy i9003.

We both like to download movies, surf sites etc so for this we mainly use opera, ucweb, mozilla, dolphin. Now I will tell u results which we have observed on every device.

Nokia 5320 (symbian phone):-

I kept open opera more, ucweb. These both browsers are very-very ram hungry apps. I simultaneously surf both browser for nearly 5-6 hours. Trust me. Not a single app closed by its own. Also multitasking had gone like smooth butter even though I had only 30 mb remained out of 128 mb ram.

Iphone 4 (i-os):-

here I got something very interesting result. When I had tried to do multitask then I observed some heavy ram hungry app autocloses. But when I opened autoclosed app like for e.g. opera then it was opened like it has never closed before. Means before autoclosing I had opened 8 tabs in opera. After I re-open opera then all tabs were running smoothly (wow)

Galaxy i9003 (android phone):-

here I opened only 3 heavy apps opera, ucweb, mozilla. After this I had only 60 mb free ram. After surfing few miniutes like as usual my mozilla app autoclosed. But when I re-opened mozilla then most fuking thing I observed. All tabs again start reloading :mad: (iphone was much better here because when I had re-opened mozilla app then all tabs were running without reloading)

Finally I want to say that still android multitasking is not mature enough. If u google then u will observe that like me so many people already complaining about it...! Google must think on this.
